THE DOCTRINE OF THE N.A.F.T.A. GLOBALIST DEMOCRATS IS TO SERVE THE BILLIONAIRE CLASS WITH ENDLESS WAVES OF INVADING 'CHEAP' LABOR SUBSIDIZED WITH WELFARE FUNDED BY TAXES ON MIDDLE AMERICA. In many speeches, Mayorkas says he is building a mass migration system to deliver workers to wealthy employers and investors and “equity” to poor foreigners. The nation’s border laws are subordinate to elites’ opinion about “the values of our country,” Mayorkas claims.

seeks to present right-wing, anti-working-class and pro-Wall Street policies as
“populist” measures designed to lower unemployment and help families stay in
their homes.”
How the government enables Wall
Street parasites to cash in on the crisis
22 February 2012
As
the Obama administration concludes a settlement with five major banks, quashing
state investigations into rampant fraud related to home foreclosures,
speculation in the mortgage-backed securities that caused the 2008 meltdown is
once again picking up.
Saturday's New York Times
reported that Greg Lippmann, a former Deutsche Bank trader who made millions of
dollars personally and $1.5 billion for Deutsche Bank by betting against
mortgage-backed securities, at the same time his bank was selling them to
clients, is back in business buying and selling these toxic assets.
The article noted that others
resuming trading in these assets include American International Group (AIG),
the insurance giant that was bailed out by the government to the tune of $100
billion, and a former mortgage team from Lehman Brothers, the Wall Street
investment bank whose collapse triggered the global financial panic on
September 15, 2008.
Lippmann,
who was the head collateralized debt obligation (CDO) trader at Deutsche Bank
during the housing bubble and its implosion, has now started his own hedge
fund, LibreMax Capital, and succeeded in raising over a billion dollars to
speculate in mortgage-backed securities. (CDOs are complex securities comprised
of mortgage-backed securities, which are themselves assembled from pools of
home loans).
Thus, three-and-a half years
after the financial crash that triggered the worst economic crisis since the
Great Depression, the same speculators whose swindling caused the banking
meltdown have not only been bailed out by the government, they have been put in
a position to make a new financial killing by the government’s policy of cheap
credit and its refusal to carry out serious bank reform or pursue criminal
prosecutions.
Lippmann's
activities during the meltdown were described in a 600-plus page report on the
Wall Street crash released last April by the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on
Investigations. That report, which detailed fraudulent and illegal actions by
Deutsche Bank, Goldman Sachs and Washington Mutual and the complicity of the
ratings agencies and federal bank regulators, was quickly buried by the media
and has remained a dead letter.
It
noted that Lippmann referred to mortgage-backed securities like the ones
Deutsche Bank was selling at the time as “crap,” and predicted that they would
plummet in value. It stated: “At one point, Mr. Lippmann was asked to buy a
specific CDO security and responded that it ‘rarely trades,’ but he ‘would take
it and try to dupe someone’ into buying it. He also at times referred to the industry’s
ongoing CDO marketing efforts as a ‘CDO machine’ or ‘Ponzi scheme.’ ”
Deutsche
Bank, according to the Senate report, went on to sell toxic mortgage-backed
securities “without disclosing to potential investors that its global head
trader of CDOs had extremely negative views” about the securities, or that,
according to the bank's models, the assets had recently lost billions of
dollars in value.
Despite earning millions
through his documented involvement in what he himself called a “Ponzi scheme,”
Lippmann is neither doing time in prison nor fending off federal
investigations. Rather, he is back to his old business of placing bets on toxic
assets.
And
business is booming. The New York Times article observes that there has
recently been renewed interest by banks and hedge funds in the very
mortgage-backed securities that were instrumental in the sub-prime mortgage
meltdown, as these assets, despite falling in value, were never decommissioned
and continue to trade.
The
revived interest is partly attributable to low prices, which, amid a housing
market that shows little sign of recovery, have continued to plunge. At the
current prices, the article notes, people like Lippmann stand to make lucrative
profits on the securities even if home values continue to fall.
Among
the factors the Times cites as creating a favorable environment for
renewed mortgage speculation is the settlement with the major banks on
foreclosure violations announced February 9 by the administration. President
Obama hailed the agreement as a boon to homeowners and a sharp rebuke to the
banks.
It was nothing of the kind.
It was a windfall for the banks—JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Citigroup,
Wells Fargo and Ally Financial—relieving them of the prospect of untold
billions in fines and damages related to the state probes that were closed
down. In
return, they were required to make a wrist-slap cash payment of $5.9 billion
and pledge another $25 billion in supposed home loan principal write-downs and
other forms of relief for distressed homeowners.
And as the Financial Times
reported last week, the bulk of the cost of the settlement will be covered by
taxpayer funds. At the insistence of the Obama administration, the banks will
be allowed to make use of an existing federal program, the Home Affordable
Modification Program (HAMP), which provides public funds to banks that agree to
reduce the principal on troubled home loans. Nearly two-thirds of the value of
any write-downs the five banks make will be recompensed with funds from this
program.
In
effect, the value of mortgage-backed securities will be underwritten by
government subsidies, opening up a wide vista for profiteering by Lippmann and
his cohorts.
The
case of Lippmann exemplifies how the policies of the Bush and Obama
administrations have enabled the financial elite to cash in on the crisis amid
the social ruins left by its criminal activities. While
millions of people have lost their homes, either through fraudulent
foreclosures or as a result of predatory mortgage practices, the financial
parasites continue to rake in millions.
These developments expose,
first, the boundless cynicism and dishonesty of Obama, who seeks to present
right-wing, anti-working-class and pro-Wall Street policies as “populist”
measures designed to lower unemployment and help families stay in their homes.
More
fundamentally, they demonstrate that the entire political establishment and
both parties, the Democrats as well as Republicans, are instruments of a
financial aristocracy that is steeped in criminality and antithetical to the
most basic needs of the people.
The
political system cannot be reformed. It must be replaced by a government of, by
and for the working class committed to ending unemployment and poverty and
establishing social equality. A mass socialist movement must be built to close
down the Wall Street casino, expropriate the ill-gotten wealth of the
speculators, and place the major levers of economic life under public ownership
and democratic control.

WALL STREET’S RAPE AND PILLAGE OF A NATION… and it ain’t over!

More than 5 million households had their wealth wiped out
since 2005
By Andre Damon
28 July 2011
28 July 2011
The
typical US household lost 28 percent of its wealth during the economic crisis,
with one third of these being totally wiped out, according to a recent analysis
of Census Bureau data carried out by the Pew Research Center, “Wealth Gaps Rise
to Record Highs Between Whites, Blacks and Hispanics”.
While
the study headlines racial disparities, the most striking findings concern the
general impoverishment of all sections of the population. The percent of US
households who have a net worth of zero dollars or below—meaning they have more
debts than assets—grew from 15 percent in 2005, to 20 percent in 2009. This
means that 5.6 million households, or about 15 million people, had their wealth
totally wiped out during the first part of the economic downturn. These figures
come from an analysis of Census Bureau survey data for 2005 and 2009.
The
study found that, after adjusting for inflation, the median wealth of US
households fell from $96,894 in 2005 to $70,000 in 2009, a drop of 28 percent.
The majority of this is attributable to the precipitous fall in real estate
values, by about 30 percent between 2006 and 2009 and even more since.
The
fall in home values has been compounded by falling wages. Between 2005 and
2009, workers’ average hourly earnings fell, on an inflation-adjusted basis, by
5 percent, according to the Labor Department.
Indebtedness
has grown as rapidly as wealth has fallen. Between 2005 and 2009, unsecured
liabilities grew 33 percent for the population as a whole, the study found.
Meanwhile,
the share of household wealth held by the wealthiest ten percent of households
grew from 49 percent in 2005 to 56 percent in 2009.
Racial
minorities have been particularly hard hit, including by the fall in housing
values. The net worth of Hispanic households fell by a staggering 66 percent,
from $12,124 in 2005 to $5,677 in 2009. The net worth of black households has
likewise tumbled 53 percent. Among Hispanics, unsecured debt grew by 47
percent.
The
level of inequality between whites, blacks, and Hispanics is now at the highest
level in 25 years, and no doubt longer. The racial differentiation is partly
attributable to geography. While whites saw the values of their own homes fall
by 18 percent and blacks by 23 percent, the home values of Hispanics fell by
more than half.
As
the report notes, “In 2005, more than two-in-five of the nation’s Hispanic and
Asian households resided in Arizona, California, Florida, Michigan and Nevada,
the five states with the steepest declines in home prices.” For Hispanics
living in these states, the report noted, “median net worth tumbled from
$51,464 in 2005 to $6,375 in 2009, a loss of 88 percent.”
These
racial divergences, however, mask the more fundamental growth of inequality
between the working class and the wealthy of all races. The report notes that
the wealthiest 10 percent of blacks now controls 67 percent of the wealth for
that group, compared to 59 percent before the downturn. For Hispanics,
likewise, the wealthiest 10 percent controlled 72 percent of wealth in 2009, up
from 59 percent in 2005.
The
number of unemployed, meanwhile, grew from 7.9 million to 15.2 million between
2005 and 2009. Rising unemployment, too, has disproportionately affected
minorities. Unemployment has affected blacks and hispanics disproportionately,
with the unemployment rate for blacks currently at 16.5 percent and 11.6
percent for hispanics.
The
staggering fall in wealth has had an transformative effect on American society,
contributing to the millions of foreclosures and personal bankruptcies. According
to figures from Realtytrac.com, there were 10 million foreclosures between 2005
and 2009, the years covered by the survey.

AMERICAN JOBS CRISIS:

OBAMA HAS FILLED HIS
ADMINSTRATION WITH PRIMARILY LA RAZA PARTY MEMBERS.
Here’s his Sec. Labor, HILDA
SOLIS:
While in Congress, she
opposed strengthening the border fence, supported expansion of illegal alien
benefits (including driver's licenses and in-state tuition discounts), embraced
sanctuary cities that refused to cooperate with federal homeland security
officials to enforce immigration laws, and aggressively championed a mass
amnesty. Solis was steeped in the pro-illegal alien worker organizing movement
in Southern California and was buoyed by amnesty-supporting Big Labor groups
led by the Service Employees International Union. She has now caused a Capitol
Hill firestorm over her new taxpayer-funded advertising and outreach campaign
to illegal aliens regarding fair wages:
Michelle Malkin
The
U.S. Department of Illegal Alien Labor
President Obama's Labor Secretary Hilda Solis is supposed to represent American workers. What you need to know is that this longtime open-borders sympathizer has always had a rather radical definition of "American." At a Latino voter registration project conference in Los Angeles many years ago, Solis asserted to thunderous applause, "We are all Americans, whether you are legalized or not."
That's
right. The woman in charge of enforcing our employment laws doesn't give a hoot
about our immigration laws -- or about the fundamental distinction between
those who followed the rules in pursuit of the American dream and those who
didn't.

OBAMA’S
SONIA SOTOMAYER, THE “WISE LATINA”, VOTED AGAINST E-VERIFY!
Obama Administration Challenges Arizona E-Verify Law
The
Obama administration has asked the Supreme Court to strike down a 2007 Arizona law that punishes employers who
hire illegal aliens, a law enacted by then-Governor Janet Napolitano. (Solicitor General's Amicus
Curiae Brief).
Called the “Legal Arizona Workers Act,” the law requires all employers in
Arizona to use E-Verify and provides that the business licenses of those who
hire illegal workers shall be repealed. From the date of enactment, the
Chamber of Commerce and other special interest groups have been trying to undo
it, attacking it through a failed ballot initiative and also through a lawsuit.
Now the Chamber is asking the United States Supreme Court to hear the case (Chamber
of Commerce v. Candelaria), and the Obama Administration is weighing in
against the law.

Underlying the rise of the
financial aristocracy—which exercises control over the entire political
system—is the failure of the world capitalist system as a whole. In amassing
its wealth, this tiny layer of the population, concentrated above all in the
United States, has overseen a vast destruction of industry and social
infrastructure. The ruling classes of every country now openly proclaim that
the maintenance of their system depends upon an unprecedented destruction in
the living conditions of the broad masses of the population.
